Clarence Lehman has inspired thousands of students in his ecology courses. He teaches at the boundaries of knowledge, and ideas crystallized in his classes have led to insights for ecological theory. He immerses students in quantitative approaches, and empowers them to solve real-world problems such as the spread of disease and climate change. Lehman treats his students as collaborators, and they leave the classroom ready to change the world.
